Hi:
To SEt a global Hotkey use the RegisterHotKey function declared in 
windows.h.
This unction take the hwnd to the indows to recieve the wm_hotkey message, 
the unique id o the hotkey you registering (see note later regarding dlls), 
any modifiers you with to use and the virtual key code of the key you wish 
to register.
If your using a shared dll, you need to use GlobalAddAtom and save the 
returned value somewhere as aposed to choosingyour own id. This is to do 
with the ranges of values hotkeys from dlls can take.
To unregister a hotkey youuse UnRegisterHotKey again declared in windows.h.
You also need to handle the wm-hotkey message in the window the hotkey 
pertanes to.
The following will give you more info:
